According to FinalGear.com, the new season of TG will start on June 12th So what can we expect from season 17? I am most excited about cars like the Aventador, Huarya and some great road challenges. Also, SLS vs 458 vs MP4-12C vs LP560 is what I want

Ah-ha! Now that's something to really look forward to. Can't wait to see what JC would do with all that POWERRRRRRRR in the Aventador and the Huayra. And I really really want to see the new McLaren and the new M5, although I doubt the latter will have been released in time for them to test.

Finally some news on Season 17. I have been waiting for it the moment season 16 got over. Will it be on TV simultaneously or will we have to wait here in India? I heard top gear was being shown in India on BBC channel. I have not seen a single episode till now on television. Hope we can the catch the series on TV itself rather than downloading from net.

Not sure if they will AIR it in the same time as UK. But i did see the Top Gear Polar Special a few days back on the BBC Channel on my Airtel HD DTH,

Also a little birdy named Autoblog just told us

Hard to say - so far we know Clarkson and May have driven a pair of electric cars, we've heard the newly-wed Prince Harry could be making his way to the Dunsfold Aerodrome (a.k.a. the Top Gear test track) and we've seen reports that the McLaren MP4-12C may have already claimed the fastest lap time on the board. For everything else, we'll just have to wait (less than a month now, mind you) to find out.

This is perfect timing for me. My exams finish on 10th June and 12th June gives me Top Gear.
And of course, we can expect the latest hypercars, and the wackiest challenges. I'm wondering what kind of cheap car challenge they will have this time. Any ideas guys?

Wow!! This is great news indeed! I believe, BBC enteratainment, on which Top gear is aired in India will not broadcast the season 17 simultaneously as the last time I saw, they were still hovering around in an episode of season 15.

Anyhow, can't wait to see them in action with their epic road madness!

The first episode will probably have the mp4-12c as JC was spotted driving one in TG track , huarya is unlikely as Pagani has not let anyone drive it till now , James May drove the lambo aventador recently in the new TG UK mag so expect that in the new series.
